3. Incorporate: Add the castor oil and avocado oil to the melted base, stirring well to ensure a consistent texture.
4. Cool: Remove the mixture from the heat and allow it to cool slightly for 2-3 minutes (it should still be liquid but not scalding).

The "Spoon Test": Before pouring the whole batch, dip a cold metal spoon into the melted mixture and let it set for a minute. This allows you to test the consistency. If it's too soft, add a pinch more beeswax; if it's too hard, add a splash more oil.
